#@%$&! I'd forgotten about those.

Something else I just remembered. When I was just a kid living in New Mexico, we had one of the first car air conditioners ever. I don't remember where it came from; I think maybe one of my dad's co-workers built it.

Two clear plastic funnels came out of the shelf under the rear window. They blew really cold air forward. It was great sitting directly in front of them until those occasions when a small chunk of ice came flying out and hit us in the head. . Our dad never believed us, until a chunk flew passed us and hit him in the back of the head.

I really do not mind the heat that much. I'd rather have it hot then cold outside.

Winter sucks, dry skin, no golf, etc. I'm much better off when it is 100, it really does not bother me to spend the afternoon on the golf course.

I grew up just across the border, listening to CHOM and playing hockey outside in January and February, as well as experiencing the summer heat and humidity. I then went from there to working in the deserts around El Paso: I can honestly say that the desert heat (and "insta-branding" from metal objects) was worse, IMO.

It stands to reason Texas would be hot, given it's one step away from hell. The one and only issue on which Gen'l Sherman was ever right.

Gen. Sherman was also quite right in his assessment of the flammability of Southern construction....

Since Chicago has had its share of 100+ weather I have had the displeasure of dealing with all of those phenomenon.
